HANC kids have math fun

Posted

Thanks to the innovative and fantastic math teachers at HANC’s Samuel & Elizabeth Bass Golding Elementary School, in West Hempstead, students in all grades are learning and having fun with math!

In Mrs. Reiff’s first grade class, students are using a Tic Tac Toe game to practice their addition and subtraction facts. Mrs. Spitalnik’s class used football and the Super Bowl to teach math to fourth and fifth graders.

Sixth graders in Mrs. Pinn’s math class completed a unit on shapes and geometry by identifying all the hidden shapes found in a picture of a robot. And although it may sound like a simple assignment, the picture was designed to make it very difficult to find the shapes and it was actually quite tricky!
